[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3843018, member: 15054"] Well you have me fooled you look like a long time professional with your testing and videos. Bearing surface and jacket thickness and bullet core material are determining factors on how much pressure a load will create. Of course weight is a factor also. If you have 2 bullets both 150 gr and one is a boat tail and the other is a flat base the chances are pretty good that the flat base will have more bearing surface. Say it is a .308 150 gr the "bearing surface" is the amount of the bullet that is .308 diameter. But you must measure. Your gun seems to like that load you made and it is working at that distance. I would stretch it's legs to 200 and farther if you plan on taking game farther and see if it holds together. [/QUOTE]
